#22: Kerrian Fournier

Kerrian Fournier, CEO of Vybrante Ventures, shares that the best ways to get to the other side of a life-shattering experience are to assure yourself that the hardship is just a chapter—not the end of the story—and to deal with your feelings rather than burying them. Kerrian learned these lessons while enduring two "trilogies of trauma": the death of her twin brother, her mother's mental health struggles, rape, debilitating Lyme disease, a layoff, and divorce.
